Actually, my reading homework  still has a long way to go... but excitement makes me being unable to focus so I am going to write down what happened today.

I am trying to act like a local but it is not going as smoothly as I've thought . It is not the problem of language, behavior or attitude. It is the appearances which make us totally different. Even if we believe ourselves to be like locals, it is no use when others view us as foreigners. I have had been yearning for living aboard or staying at a foreign place which I'm unfamiliar with for a long period of time or so to be enjoyable and simple. But now, I am not so sure about it. It is not that American make me feel discouraged (actually some of them are quite friendly!), it is the problem of why I am not satisfy with being an Asian and live in Asia. No doubt I love English. To me, it's the most beautiful language I've ever heard. Also, speaking it is like singing a melody:D Teacher Rob was surprised that I haven't been to America before. In fact, I am proud of my pronounciation but I know there is still a long way to go. Oops! I am straying from my topic XD. After visiting Boston and New York, having a glimpse of them, I found that Taiwan is not that unimpressive. Except for its tiny size and the humid weather, the convenience of getting around, the safty because of having same people around and the culture I've already evolved in make me feel I am at home. Well, I am still a traveler, leaving footstep to foreign lands, taking away pictures and experiences, and cultivating a more mature perscpect. Not everyone has the same chance as me, and I do thank you so much my dear Dad for giving me the financial support.

I find that time is running out now. Classes are full from nine to four from Mon to Thu and there are homeworks, too. In addition, everyday is full of of new experiences and prescious memories. I can hardly write down all of them before I start to fall asleep as soon as I come back to hotel and put my bag down. I have to say that classes aren't really conform to my expection except for the business class. It's a beginning anyway.

I started to get familiar with the campus now though it's still hard for me to tell the right way immideately. The long way seems less difficut because of the enjoyable view and the spirited sunshine. Lena, the program cooridinator, took us to look around today. With the student card we got today, we can start to have the use of all facilities in UCONN. How great!
